Hey folks, I'm bad at intro's so I'll give you the down-to-the-point version of what I call...'me'...
Username: Elrond
Other names I've used: [gOP] Elrond, [pGA] Elrond, Elrond_the_White, JoshpGA, pGAJosh (in game names in battle for middle earth because there's already like 10 elrond's there LoL).
Real Name: Joshua B.
Age: 23.
Birthday: June 5, 1982.
Gender: Male (duh).
Local Nation: United States
Local State: Pennsylvania (PA)
Local City: (New Rivendell) - not the real name of the town btw, *cough* not yet. Mwahahahahahaha.
Educational Experience: Bachelor's Degree in Earth Science and Computer Science (to be upgraded by this fall hehe - the big guy on campus is about to be the big guy on campus again).
Coursework:
- Earth Science:
-- General Geology (duh duh duh easy A)
-- Environmental Geology
-- Paleontology
-- Historical Geology
-- Biology (2 courses)
-- Chemistry (3 courses)
-- Physics (4 courses)
-- Mineralogy
-- Petrology
- Computer Science:
-- C++ (five courses, I still use it sometimes)
-- ASM (Assembly Programming) - 1 semester
-- Java and JavaScript (one year)
-- SQL (1 semester, did kinda crappy, got a C, kinda using it now, but with bad results)
-- php, asp.net (2 courses, did very well, still use php a lot)
- Education (Teaching):
-- Completed 30 credits in this; however, did not want to go into student teaching because of some things I learned about our state's education policies that I thought were lame and I knew I would not like it then.
(WTH am I making, a resume. I'm so used to making these and reading these that I don't know how to just plain introduce myself LoL, and nope, never used LoL in a resume - except once - and I got hired because of that LoL. No kidding).
Relationships: Wife: Amy H., now Amy B. Most loving person ever to live, ever, saved my life at least three times.
Interests: Coding and making modifications to sites (when it works), going to the park and walking and talking with Amy, going to the movies with Amy, hanging out with friends, running the server, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, digital photography, taking digital video, editting digital video, architecture, architectural drafting, and best and foremost, just love.
Quirks:
- I often have been known to get really depressed and blame everything on myself. Ended up in the hospital for it a few times in just this year.
- Unnecessary honesty (such as even mentioning that I get that depressed because people probably think I'm weird for mentioning it).
- I get huge amounts of time where I have no motivation at all towards anything.
- I'm nervous around large groups of people.
- I oftentimes find that I am getting advice from people younger than me and that kinda gives me a complex of "oh, I must be a moron."
- I have insomnia and can't get to sleep if a boxer tries to knock me out.
- When I DO get to sleep, sometimes a nuclear explosion couldn't wake me (well, it probably wouldn't anyways as I wouldn't be able to get up if a bunch of radiation poisons me). LoL I'm such a geek LoLoL.
- I'm quite forgetful and have forgotten things that I heard 2 seconds ago. Fish have a higher tolerance of memory sometimes LoL. Yet I can remember things that happened 20 years ago.
- Very infrequently has anyone ever seen me actually cry. But I cry when I hear sad music, even joyful music. I'm really a cry-baby when it comes down to it, but few have seen that side of me. Amy has seen me cry though, quite a few times.
Positive Traits:
- I find myself giving advice on a regular basis, the thing is it's advice I usually myself don't follow, so I end up being a hypocrit, but it's all good LoL.
- I'm very serious when I have to be, but I always like to throw a little humor into (most) situations (not all situations though because there's some things that just aren't funny and are wrong on like 10 different levels).
- I'm cute (according to Amy).
- I'm smart (again, according to Amy).
- I will cry whenever Amy cries, no matter where we are.
- I stand for the right things (my friends, my family, and love). Never have I really hated anyone. I have said it before when I'm angry or full of despair, but I never mean it.
- When I was younger, no one took me seriously. These days, I kind of am completely the opposite. Everyone knows that when I'm joking, I'm joking, and when I'm serious, I'm serious.
- I have my own faith that is different from any organized faith on the planet, a faith built on common sense, logic, and of course, when it comes down to it, faith in God. To me, it is not necessary to discuss religion because to me, everyone knows in one way or another what is right and wrong. It just depends on what people choose to do, to follow the light, or hide in the shadows. I would consider myself one who follows the light.
- I work to better myself so that those around me are not burdened by me.
- I appreciate change, but I still know that when something's not broke you don't fix it.
And that's my intro. It was hard to begin, but it was easy to start rambling and posting a full autobiography.
